I'm answering myself:
still no count-in in MS 4.1!
It would be urgent to get this function back! It's this lack that keeps me on Musescore 3 in production, whereas the VST and FX management is absolutely brilliant on MS4!
But the advantage of count-in is not limited to the first measure: you can count-in from any measure. This is essential, for example, when rehearsing a band or choir with Musescore.
Is there a way to vote for enhancement requests. I would vote for this one big time. What I am doing now is creating in MS4.1 and exporting to musicXML which MS3 can read. Then I practice in MS3.
Why don't you create the file with version 3 if you have to open it with 3?
Note that 3.7 can open V4 files directly, avoiding the musicxml export step.
I have a couple reasons for not wanting to develop in MuseScore version 3. I was unable to find a 3.7 download on the MuseScore.org download page. I did find it in GitHub but I don't want to go through the process required for a GitHub download. Also, I prefer to develop my scores in the latest version of MuseScore.
